2025 Tasmanian state election

The 2025 Tasmanian state election was held on 19 July 2025 to elect all 35 members of the Tasmanian House of Assembly.

The election was precipitated by a no-confidence motion in the Liberal government, led by state premier Jeremy Rockliff who had governed in minority since the preceding 2024 election. Rockliff sought to call a snap election in response, which was granted by state governor Barbara Baker on 11 June 2025. The election was conducted by the Tasmanian Electoral Commission and was held just 15 months after the previous election, the third consecutive Tasmanian state election to be held early.

The Liberal Party was attempting to win a fifth consecutive term against the Australian Labor Party (ALP) opposition led by Dean Winter, who was contesting his first election as opposition leader. Rockliff was the first premier to contest consecutive Tasmanian elections since Robin Gray in 1989.

The election resulted in a second consecutive hung parliament. The Liberals won the most seats and highest primary vote, winning 14 out of 35 seats, while the ALP opposition won 10 seats and recorded its lowest primary vote in over 100 years. Crossbenchers won the remaining 11 seats, with the Greens and independents winning five seats each and the Shooters, Fishers and Farmers Party winning its first seat in Tasmania.

Negotiations with the crossbenchers to form a new government began after the election, but neither Rockliff nor Winter were able to secure sufficient formal confidence and supply guarantees. Rockliff was ultimately recommissioned as premier as head of a Liberal minority government, with his ministry sworn in on 11 August 2025.
